Jankunas has not competed since October 31, when Zalgiris met BC Labas GAS Prienai in the Lithuanian Basketball League.

He underwent meniscus surgery and was forced to miss almost two months of basketball action.

The 37-year-old big man is averaging 2.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 3.2 PIR over 5 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games (14 minutes).

Jankunas is registering 6.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 6.8 PIR in 4 local competition contests (17.5 minutes).

Zalgiris are still missing Joffrey Lauvergne and Regimantas Miniotas in the big men's department due to injuries.

The Lithuanian champions are capturing the last place (18th) in the EuroLeague standings, having 3 wins and 13 defeats in their resume.
